Destiny is a complicated video game. In fact, if you want to make the most of the game, you’ll need to create three characters. Once you do that, you’ll find that you constantly need to transfer weapons, armor, and consumables across them.

Bungie has a mobile and app and website that lets you make these transfers by sending items to the vault, then switching to another character and grabbing the item from the vault. It’s a tedious process that features an extra step.

Why can’t we just go from character to character without the vault? As it turns out we can, and we don’t even need any third-party apps!

When logged into Bungie.net, you’ll see the default screen where you see all the gear your character has. On the bottom of this screen is a button labeled Manage Gear. Clicking that will take you to Bungie’s vastly superior manager that gives you all kinds of features that aren’t in the mobile app or standard website.

What can it do? Check it out:

Move gear from character to character without switching

Maximize Light, Intellect, Strength, or Discipline with one click

Click and drag to move stuff around

Filter by item types

This feature just recently came out of beta, and now it’s actually accessible via the drop down menu at the top of the screen. However you get to it, just start using it. You can get to raiding faster and spend less time moving your Touch of Malice between characters.
